Following their acclaimed comeback “Here For None” (2023), Warmen turns the page with “Band of Brothers” – their most powerful and cohesive studio album to date – set for release on August 15th, 2025, via Reaper Entertainment.
In 2025, Warmen presents themselves heavier, tighter, and more determined than ever before. The new record combines brutal heaviness, anthemic melodies, and cinematic atmosphere cementing the band’s evolution from a side project to a fully-fledged force in melodic death metal. “We really wrote this album together”, says band founder Janne “Warman” Wirman. “It feels like a real band – a true band of brothers”.
“Band of Brothers” was recorded at various locations across Finland and refined by Mikko Karmila (mixing) and Mika Jussila (mastering) at the legendary Finnvox Studios. Frontman Petri Lindroos (Ensiferum) delivers aggressive vocals and distinctive guitar solos, adding new energy and helping to define the band’s modern sound. The cover artwork was once again created by Aleh Zieliankievic, who also worked on Here For None.
The first single, the title track “Band of Brothers”, will play a central role in the band’s 2025 live set. Following the album release, Warmen will embark on an extensive touring schedule across Europe, including debut shows in Hungary and Switzerland, as well as a major headlining tour in Finland. The official album launch will kick off with a special release show at Summer Breeze Open Air on August 15th.
Stay tuned for more on “Band of Brothers” to be announced in the weeks to come.
